Commited suicide with a shotgun to the head. Left a note simply saying "excuse all the blood".

Later on i think it was the guitarist from Mayhem that instead of reporting the suicide upon discovering it, took a picture of it for the album... cant remember what thats called either.

And then he allegedly made a soup out of Dead's brains and necklaces out of the fragments of his skull.

Lovely.

Damn.. I've never heard that version of the story before... But then the bassist went to jail for life for murdering the guitarist that did that. That really is sad the whole "Excuse all the Blood" like his death was a joke...

anyway my favorite black metal of the little i have heard is Venom, Emporer and dimmu but idk if we can count dimmu as full on black metal.

didnt some guy from gorgoroth like lock someone in their basement and drink their blood or something?

That was Gaahl fools. All you people talking about Dead and Varg pfft. Gaahl tortured some dude in his cellar or basement, and then put the draining blood in a chalice or something, although he claimed he used the chalice just to stop the blood getting on the floor not to drink it. But no one knows but him I guess haha.

Black metal ehh? Favorite is Emperor, look at my favorite bands list But I like Burzum Gorgoroth, Akitsa, Mirrorthrone, Vesperian Sorrow, Immortal, Bathory, 1349 is okay I guess, if they dropped the corpse paint... god I hate how people still wear corpse paint. Theres tons more, but I just saw this thread and I have 11 more pages of a report to write so laters haha.
